    drisos,

    every Windows OS has the MS-DOS-Command line.
    If your search for cmd.exe doesn't return anything it's not there.
    It may be that you haven't installed it.
    Please go to System Control Panel/Software/Windows-components

    Each component has an additional detail tab. Open them all until you come
    across the command line tool.

    Once you have it installed, entering "cmd" in "Run.." opens a black window
    that stays open. Here you enter the "ipconfig" command.

    Windows OS? what means the OS actually

    I couldn't find the 'command line tool' maybe if you tell me what it is I can translate into Dutch and find it in the System CP

    Should I install it with my windows CD-rom? We lost it. I do have a map called options/cabs in windows which contains all that was on the CD-rom, so I might be able to install it anyway.

    im puzzled!

    OS=Operating System


    This is how the command-tool looks like.
    The german word is "Eingabeaufforderung"
    Notice the icon with the "C:\" prompt.
    Look out for that.

    I did some more testing and have the feeling that I'm very close.

    When hosting a LAN game Shogun listens to UDP 2290.
    When hosting a game on fakeserver it listens to TCP 2467.

    And then there're also the ports for directplay
    6515 (Dplay UDP)
    6500 (Query Port)

    I'll try to test those ports asap.

    I found the program and entered ipconfig:



    But now? what is my IP?

    Let's host.

    Good luck and hope we solve it, R'as.

    Lots of posts here,

    Ive been a lil busy so havent seen any of these earlier,

    The port numbers i found in my firewall.
    I checked the port numbers that shogun uses when conecting to games and crating hosted games,
    also it connects to fakeserver through a port so that has been added to.

    My firewall tells me that, shogun uses
    port 1683
    and
    port 18321
    It also connects to fakeserver on
    port 8793,

    aslong as you can forward the the datais to the right place those ports are what you need,

    I.e

    your real ip adress is,
    123.456.789

    and your router ip is 122.333.444

    id expect it to be

    inside adress 123.456.789:8793 outside adress 122.333.444:8793

    inside adress 123.456.789:18321 outside adress 122.333.444:18321

    Anytime I host a game, doesn't matter if own fakeserver,
    Shambles fake, or LAN my machine
    listens to a random (so it seems) UDP port.
    I've had several. In fact each time a different one.

    I'd like to try to host a game, alt tab to my firewall,
    check out which UDP it listens to, open that port,
    alt tab back into lobby to check if people can see/join.
